In what may have been a planned New Year’s eve attack averted, a man was arrested in Texas after police found him to be in possession of a high-powered rifle, a handgun and a cash of ammunition while staying on the top floor of a Houston area hotel room.
The man was taken into custody on multiple charges after Houston police responded to reports of an intoxicated man. Upon arrival, police located an AR-15, a shotgun, a handgun and “lots of ammunition,” on the top floor of the Hyatt Regency on Louisiana Street downtown.
Police at the hotel called for backup around 1:30 a.m. Sunday after they attempted to arrest the man for being intoxicated and trespassing. When help arrived, police noticed ammunition laying around the man’s hotel room, Lt. Gordon Macintosh with Houston police said. The man was arrested for unlawfully carrying a weapon and trespassing. When investigators looked into his room further, they located an AR-15, a shotgun, a handgun and lots of ammunition, Macintosh said. source
